Yeah. A track that didn't make it to Vulgar Display Of Power. It seems after all these years they checked out the song again and thought "Wow, why didn't we include this one on the record?! It's great". At least that is what I remember Vinnie said.
In short, marketing.

Aside from the fact part of the song is derived from 'Use My Third Arm' I thought it was ok. Probably not the first song you'd choose to feature on an album but I've heard a lot worse and it does remind me of a time when Pantera existed. They have worse songs at any rate but this is clearly a cash grab but one that'll suit most fans.

It implies that the deceased individual is roused from death, so to speak, by an unfortunate occurrence that would have bothered them should they still be alive - in this instance, the blatant marketing ploy that is releasing a recording he featured on, that during his life he himself (as part of a collective, i.e. Pantera) did not see fit to release.

What's with everyone speaking on behalf of dead musicians as if they know what they had in mind?

PS I was well aware of the phrase, although I'm more familiar with "rolling in his grave" as opposed to "spinning".

I'm not so much speaking on behalf of a dead musician as I am pointing out the obvious fact that he in his lifetime nor the band in their lifetime as a band chose to release the track in any shape or form - - that the move to do so now is clearly a financial one.

I'll agree with this. A far weaker track than anything on Vulgar Display of Power.

However by the looks of it, they recycled the chorus bit for "Use My Third Arm" as opposed to deriving it from that song (Far Beyond Driven came out after Vulgar Display of Power).

It does make me feel a bit sad that Dimebag and Pantera are no more. I grew up with Pantera (I even have a CFH tattoo on my right ankle) and still love their music to this day.
